Classroom of the Elite: OC the unpolished diamond

Volume 1: Meet new people

Chapter 3

Yato POV:

The school day had just ended, and I was on my way to the gymnasium, where each club would be presented.

The first thing I noticed was that almost every student who was there was in their first year. It makes sense when we think about it. Every student who was there last year who wanted to join a club wouldn't attend this meeting because they already knew which one they would join. 

With a quick glance at the crowd, I noticed that there must have been around 100 students who came to this assembly. When I estimated the number of people we were, I recognized two classmates of mine. One was the girl who ignored me the first time I introduced myself yesterday, and the other was Ayanokoji, the one I laughed at during his presentation.

Yato: Maybe I should go introduce myself after what happened yesterday. Nah, what would be the point of going there and introducing myself?

Of course, when I was considering whether to go, Ayanaokoji started looking in my direction and noticed me.

Yato: Sighs... Now, It's too late to pretend not to have seen them...

I started to walk towards them, avoiding all the people in the crowd. Finally, I arrived next to these two.

Yato: Hey, you're the guy from my class, right? Sorry about what happened yesterday. I didn't want to make fun of you...well yeah I did somehow but whatever hahaha

Ayanokoji: I...see?

I kept the same smile on my face, looking at his reaction as the girl standing next to him.

Yato: Anyway... I couldn't introduce myself yesterday. My name is Fukazawa Yato. You can call me by my first name or last name. I don't care, so do as you prefer...

Ayanokoji: Nice to meet you Fukazawa. Also, as I said yesterday, I'm Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.

I just nodded with the same attitude as I switched my gaze to the girl next to him...

Yato: And you, what's your name? Or perhaps I'm not worth your name again?

???: ...

Yato: Seriously? Two times in a row? I have feelings, you know?

Ayanakoji: Hey Horikita, you could at least give him your name...he's a classmate after all.

Yato: Horikita huh...

But as soon as this Ayanokoji guy said that to the girl, she crossed her arms, annoyed and started looking at him.

Horikita: Would you mind minding your own business, Ayanokoji-kun? 

Yato: Don't jump on my guy like that...what's up with you? Have we dated before and I don't remember?

Horikita: Hah? I see...it seems I misjudged you...I didn't think you would be as bad as idiots such as Yamauchi and Ike from our class...

Yato: Ouch...aaand now you really hurt my feelings you know?

Seriously, you are putting me in the same bag as Ike and Yamauchi.

Yato: Anyway, it was nice to meet you two... I guess? 

I just shrugged as I turned around...

Yato: See you next time Ayanokoji.

Since he was the only one of the two to answer me, I decided to say goodbye to him.

I continued to walk a bit further away until I found a nice spot to observe the whole room. But while I was waiting for the club presentation to start, I started to think about the two I had just met.
